Unplug appliance and let cool slightly. To ease clean up, it is best to do so while the
unit is still warm. If it is allowed to cool before cleaning, food will harden, making it
difficult to remove.
S
Use cleaning tool provided to clean the grids. The “comb” end allows you to clean between
the ribs. The “rounded” handle end of the tool is for cleaning the front grease trough.
S
Wash the separate grease tray in sink. If placed in dishwasher, the outside finish of
the tray will become dull.
S
Wipe the top non-stick cooking plate with paper towel to clean off the majority
of the grease trough.
S
You may also pour hot soapy water into the bottom cooking plate, letting it flow
out the side spout into a bowl or container. You may rinse in this way also.
S
Should any food become burned, and difficult to remove from the cooking plates,
pour a little cooking oil onto the hardened food. Let sit overnight until food softens.
Wipe off with paper towel or soft cloth.
S
Use damp cloth for final clean up of the top plate, and the rest of the appliance.
S
Simply wipe top housing with damp cloth and towel dry. Do not use any chemicals
or any other abrasives.
S
Do not immerse appliance in water or any liquid. Do not place in dishwasher.
